Raghav Chadha’s Name Added to Delhi Voter List After Punjab Removal

Raghav Chadha’s name has been recorded in the Delhi electoral rolls for the Rajinder Nagar constituency as part of a special revision exercise carried out by the Election Commission. The update was made through the standard procedure that periodically refreshes voter databases across the capital.

Leaders of the Aam Aadmi Party raised questions about the timing and rationale of Chadha’s inclusion, suggesting that the process required clarification. Election officials, however, affirmed that the addition followed the usual updation protocol and did not involve any extraordinary measures.

Chadha’s name was earlier removed from Punjab’s electoral rolls after he secured a Rajya Sabha seat from the state, prompting the need to reflect his residence in Delhi where he now contests elections. The commission will publish a supplementary list of all recent additions to the electoral database in the coming days.

The revision underscores the ongoing effort to keep voter registers current ahead of upcoming elections, ensuring that eligible citizens are correctly listed in their respective constituencies.
